The first trailer for Mandy, the much-anticipated action-horror film festival fave directed by Panos Cosmatos (Beyond the Black Rainbow) and starring the one and only Nicolas Cage, has been released by RLJE Films.

Mandy has been wowing audiences at festivals around the world since it made its official debut at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. With Cosmatos’ gift for gorgeous visuals married to some deranged heavy metal album cover imagery (Demons on motorcycles! Red wielding a gleaming steel ax in battle!) and Cage unleashing yet another performance of full-strength insanity, this looks to be one of the most memorable genre features of the year.

A co-production with the horror streaming service Shudder, Mandy brings the blood-drenched madness to theaters and VOD on September 14, 2018. I’m ready. Bring it on.

Trailer

Pacific Northwest. 1983 AD. Outsiders Red Miller and Mandy Bloom lead a loving and peaceful existence. When their pine-scented haven is savagely destroyed by a cult led by the sadistic Jeremiah Sand, Red is catapulted into a phantasmagoric journey filled with bloody vengeance and laced with fire.
